Dannii!!!!!!!

Dannii (always like a little princess in pink) and her parents, Mark and Amanda, visited us two weeks ago and little Dannii (we also loved the name) immediately became our favorite little model, so we all here decided that she would be our model for the season.
So here it is Dannii, as promised, your picture to advertise Angelos Village!!!!

Making lemonade.... and the "Kids Band"


Our gardens are full of lemon trees (in fact very productive lemon trees loaded with lemons this time of the year) and our hotel is full of children (in fact loaded with children, this week), playing and having fun in the pool, around the pool and in the gardens. Last Thursday afternoon the kids decided to pick up the lemons from the trees and to make lemonade to offer to all the guests.
The pick-up went great, they had also the water, sugar, glasses and everything else they needed, and the result was lemonade for all of us!!!!!!



Friday night, Elisabeth organized a performance for little Dannii, who was leaving that same night. On the video that follows you can listen to the "kids band" singing . Elisabeth is seating on the last stool left and there is Dannii in the middle and Natalie on the right.

Engagement at the hotel!!!


Glen and Kate (on the picture the day of their departure) came for holidays in Angelos Village...they were living in room number 23 AND THERE, on the balcony GLEN proposed to KATE giving her a beautiful ring with a pink stone and SHE said YES!!!!!
Congratulations and the best wishes from all of us in Angelos VIllage.
The wedding will be sometime next June and Glen and Kate promised to let us know and to send us some pictures!!!!
It is a first for the hotel and we all were very excited!!!
I think that we will rename their room to "23-Get engaged room"...

On this picture you see me, Glen and Kate with their goodbye and Congratulations drinks at the bar.

Another Friday

It is a hot Friday, today, here in Angelos Village, and we are getting ready to say goodbye to some really good new friends like Gary and Anne Marie. Anne Marie is sad since yesterday because she does not want to go home and Gary is offering to help at the bar so that they can stay a bit longer. In the picture you see them with Karen and Seanus that have already left 2 days ago, promising to come back soon and Elisabeth - our "good mood fairy" of the bar and the pool - who stays until Sunday.


Some of the kids (there are plenty this time of the year!) are also leaving, missing most of all Tolis who became their best friend...



The weather in Hersonissos and Crete is beautiful with a very pleasant see breeze - called meltemi - during the day, but we expect a raise of temperature, that could be up to 40 degrees Celsius the next 2 days. Everybody stays by the pool for as long as possible. The bar and the pool are the most popular facilities of Angelos Village this time of the year, even more popular than the restaurant.
People are renting cars and every evening they return full of new experiences and discoveries of Crete that they are anxious to share with their friends and Mario who these days is mostly preparing cocktails for children (alcohol free of course), together with beers and angelos village specials for the adults...
Samaria gorge, Spinalonga and Vai are the top 3 places to visit in Crete these days, according our guests...

Photos from Christina

As promised, Christina sent me just today the pictures that you see below.

Myself, Christina and a friend from Germany the day of Christina's departure, at the bar.
Aren't they in a good mood?

The bar is the place where all our guests gather to have a drink, chat, but also make new friends playing dice, as you can clearly see on that picture.

The youngest of our guests, ready to go out to live the famous night life of the port of Hersonissos and come back at the hotel just in time for breakfast...
Tolis surrounded by our guests after he has finished the evening shift in the dinning room, but always in a good mood.

We Proudly Present Our New Logo...


Our New Logo is ready. We are really pleased with the work done BUT we are waiting for your comments.
Other than that the week has been very busy, the temperature is ideal and the bar is every night full of people that became friends there. On Friday, or should I say early in the morning on Saturday we waved goodbye to Christina who left after two weeks in Angelos and promised to send us some pictures and comments.


Baby Helen (the first grand daughter of the owner -Angelos-) came at the hotel for the very first time in her life and everybody was really excited to see her in her tiny little dress.
Vasso (the mother) is back -even if it's only for the weekend and she was extremely welcomed especially from our German guests, as she is the only one who speaks German fluently! The rest of us just try...
Gianna, the little daughter of Angelos is also helping out at the bar, in the mornings and she influences everybody with her good mood.

Lily and Rose

Lily and Rose came for holidays separately, met in Angelos Village and they quickly became friends. In the picture you see them with Afroditi (our receptionist) the day of their departure (26 June 2007). It was a pleasure for us to have them here. They were always in a cheerful mood and very friendly so they set the tone around the pool...We hope to see them again soon.
